About this property
The Grove - Quaint Mendocino cottage just minutes from the beach!
THE GROVE
NOTE: If you are bringing pet's , please let us know! We do charge a fee of seventy five dollars per pet.
Looking for a peaceful respite or a romantic rendezvous among the redwoods? Come stay at The Grove, a charming 2 bedroom, 1 bath property situated on 2.5 acres of forested, quiet land in residential Fort Bragg.
Built in 1917 and renovated to suit our more modern guests, this property sleeps up to 4 people, making it ideal for couples trips, romantic getaways, babymoons, and vacations for small families. It's also perfect for anyone looking to relax in a hidden enclave nestled amongst the trees – without having to rough it. The uneven floors speak to a century of history, and the house has plenty of quirks and historical and architectural details to please design-savvy members of your travel party (keep an eye out for the light fixtures). It also comes with modern amenities and a great location.
You'll be a short drive from downtown Fort Bragg, with all of its small-town and small business charm. Browse art galleries, shop for local treasures, eat at gourmet restaurants, go mural-hunting, hit the trails, spot the trains at the depot… all these adventures are within easy reach. But with 2.5 forested acres, you'll be able to retreat to your cottage and feel worlds away.
When you first arrive, you'll notice your yard features a fenced-in garden with rhododendrons, croquet equipment, a firepit, and a deck with lounge chairs. At night, you can sit and watch the stars or roast s'mores (or both) to your heart's content.
Inside the house, you'll find a comfortable living room with a sectional sofa and armchairs – perfect for sinking into for game night or a Netflix binge. A selection of DVD box sets offers another avenue for entertainment. The WiFi throughout the house will keep you connected.
For dinner, going out on the town is easy – you're a few minutes away from some amazing restaurants. If you're a seafood fan, we recommend driving down to the harbor for the freshest catch you'll ever taste. Fort Bragg offers a variety of options, ranging from country comfort to award-winning dining experiences, and Mendocino is just 15 minutes away. Or you can stay in and make use of the fully equipped kitchen, which comes with an oven, microwave, 5-top gas stove, ample cabinets, fridge, and freezer, as well as a farmhouse sink and a dishwasher for easy clean-up. The eat-in kitchen has a table with seating for four.
Other amenities of this historic house include an ironing board, a washer, and a dryer, so you'll be able to look sharp for Zoom meetings or going into town.
As you explore the house, a variety of features will draw your eye. The unique breakfast bar enclosure will delight you with its view onto the yard and into the forest. The nook's glass pane window is designed to slide down out of the way, so you can dine al fresco (or as close to al fresco as possible while staying indoors).
In the rear of the house, the spacious bathroom features a top-of-the-line shower, where you can freshen up as you get ready to explore the coast or wash off the sand after a day at the beach. You'll also enjoy stylish lighting and a large mirror, so you can make sure you're picture-perfect.
When you decide to call it a night, both bedrooms feature comfortable, top-quality beds.
In the front bedroom, let the Zzzs take over as the queen mattress and fascinating art lull you to sleep. In the back bedroom, you'll find soft cream tones paired with an accent wall conducive to both rest and creativity, while windows overlook your peaceful surroundings. In the morning, if conditions are right, a soft fog will dot the space between the trees, and the breathtaking beauty of The Grove that gives this vacation rental its name will make you want to revisit these moments for years to come.
The romance of The Grove will make you fall in love with it. So come visit — but be warned that you just might start a lifelong love affair with this charmingly rustic gem of a home.
